Sore Throat


Question Posted Tuesday June 26 2007, 12:50 pm

I have a really bad sore throat. It hurts extremely bad when I swallow and it's hard to bare. It hurts when I talk but it also hurts even when I'm just sitting doing nothing. I had it yesterday, but it wasn't bad. Last night it got really bad and had 2 glasses of hot tea with sugar. That didn't work. This morning I woke up and it was worse. I had a hard candy "cold-eaze" or something of that sort. It just keeps getting worse. For lunch I had pb & j on soft bread with milk. It hurt so bad when I was eating. I'm guessing I shouldn't work out today? I'm trying to schedule a doctors appt. Until then, any ideas? Also, what kind of soup would you recommend for dinner? I dislike chicken noodle and I don't eat a lot of soup. I like tomato, but is there any kinds with veggies or maybe burger? Thanks!

I've had that, get to the doctor as soon as possible- because mine was so bad I couldn't drink or even eat mashed potatos. =/ then I didn't go to the doctor I just let it go& then a few weeks later& instead of just having a infection, I had a sinus infection,& a upper respitory infection& I was coughing up blood- I don't know what to tell you to eat because I couldn't eat anything or I would eat very little of anything, try soft things though like mashed potatos, stuffing, veggie soup-& don't drink milk or anything with dairy, it will make it worse.

Um, the first thing that popped into my mind was strep throat...I'm not sure if you have it, though.

But, try and avoid cold foods and drinks...
Try and make sure everything you drink and eat are warm--if you can, that is.

But try drinking lots of green tea and eat lots of apples [put it in the blender if it's hard to swallow] But don't add sugar to either the drink or apple. You can put tomatos in the blender with some water [or juice or your choice] and make tomato juice.

Try tomato soup, cream of mushroom, or just try any type of soup you want to.

Try and stick with healthy, soft foods. Try steaming vegetables so they're nice and soft. I'm not sure if you'll want to attempt to eat a burger, though, because it will msot likely hurt =/

Hope you get better =)

you could try "beef stew." it has meat and veggies. its really good and soft on the throat. suck on a lot of cough drops, no matter how much you dont like them, cuz they start to work, trust me. ^_^
